#1: PLEASE HELP WITH THIS IF YOU CAN GUY'S !! Author: ryanrox, Location: CoventryPosted: Wed Feb 02, 2011 7:02 pm ---- right guys ive had this really annoying sound comming from my driver's side wheel for the past few month's , it is a like high pitch sound going to the momentum of the wheel
when i apply the brake the sound turns into a crunching noise , very noticeable when breaking at lights /slowing down
i have had my pads and my bearings changed but still the noise continues and it is doing my nut in !
guy at the garage i use said its the actually hub its self but i have given the car to another garage and they it is the driveshaft :s
i personally myself took the wheel off and spun the section around, i noticed the noise happens once per 360 spin on the same section every spin if that makes any sense what so ever
i'm not really good with car's just an amazing driver ahah (i wish)
if anyone has any clue what is it i would be really grateful as i feel garages are just trying to mug me off
thanks

Not saying that's what is wrong with your's but I heard about three different diagnosis before I found the issue.
#4: Re: PLEASE HELP WITH THIS IF YOU CAN GUY'S !! Author: ryanrox, Location: CoventryPosted: Wed Feb 02, 2011 7:27 pm ---- yer when i seem to brake it seems to shake quite vigarously when going from high speeds
if it is the driveshift how much you reckon i'm looking?
suicidalsoldi3r did you have similar noises? one guy at the garage did say i have a like dip in my brake disk

Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Wed Feb 02, 2011 7:32 pm ---- It squeaked as the disc rotated and and when the brakes were applied it got louder, But the wheels also shuddered as I broke which was strong enough to feel back though the steering. If the garage said you have a dip you should change them anyway then see if there is any difference.

#8: Re: PLEASE HELP WITH THIS IF YOU CAN GUY'S !! Author: Werdnal, Location: Cornwall, UKPosted: Thu Feb 03, 2011 4:47 am ---- Warped or worn discs?
I had a problem in a previous car where the disc was worn, and the lip on the edge of the disc was scruffing on the pad.

#10: Re: PLEASE HELP WITH THIS IF YOU CAN GUY'S !! Author: my1st206, Location: Milton KeynesPosted: Thu Feb 03, 2011 6:40 am ---- I have a grinding sound aswell, i tried new pads and discs and then about a month later there is a slight grinding noise again as though the discs need replacing again. I felt the brake discs and there is already a slight lip on them, is that right after about a month??

Author: ryanrox, Location: CoventryPosted: Thu Feb 03, 2011 6:47 pm ---- Thanks guys, guy at garage reckons it is defiantly the hub, so is replacing that and if the disks are worn or warped then getting them replaced too, hope this sorts out this bloody noise! Apart from this the car has been a lil gem!
